Embodiment Construction

[0041]Referring to FIG. 1 in prior art, a monitoring sensor 102 is attached to a patient 101. The Monitoring sensor includes sensors 104 attached to the patient. The sensor device 102 is in communication with a secondary device 103. The secondary device includes input and output means such as buttons 106 for inputting information and triggering events and means for viewing status 105. Non-limiting examples of sensors included in the sensor device 102 are voltage sensors for detecting electrocardiogram and electroencephalogram and respiration information, optical sensors to measure for example blood oxygen content optically, and chemical sensors to measure pH or blood glucose, potentiometric sensors to measure blood chemistry, thermal couples and thermal resistors to measure temperature and accelerometers and strain gauges to measure movement and respiration. The data from the sensors 104 is collected in a worn device 102 and transmitted to a secondary device 103. The data may be tra...

Abstract

An electrical patch and associated system for acquisition of physiological data is described. The patch has a design that enables a variety of configurations depending upon the requirements physiological measurements to be made. Patches with single input channels to patches with multiple input channels, processing capabilities and radio communication can all use the same physical configuration. The design includes a battery management system to enable long term data acquisition and an optimization process that includes mirroring of algorithms on the patch and devices local to the user with algorithms running on a centrally located server. The server can then optimize data acquisition and analysis algorithms. The components of the system and methods of use are included.
